Elias, a talented musician hailing from Sydney, Australia, embarked on his musical journey at the tender age of 4 under the guidance of his grandfather. Immersed in the sounds of Jerry Reed, The Shadows, Chet Atkins & Tommy Emmanuel, Elias was inspired to emulate their mastery. Despite being self-taught and unable to read music, he honed his craft through ear training and collaboration with fellow musicians.
At 16 years old, Elias had the opportunity to live out his dream and perform alongside Tommy Emmanuel in the Maui Cultural Arts Centre, Hawaii – an experience that further fueled his passion for music. Over the years, he has had the privilege of collaborating with numerous musicians from across the globe, enriching his musical repertoire.
In 2020, Elias was recognized as a graduate of the Talent Development Project, marking a significant milestone in his musical career. He has since been carving out his path as a solo artist in Australia, culminating in the release of his debut EP,
‘Give to Keep’ in early 2021 and recording parts of his collaboration project ‘According To History’ at Sony Music Australia.
His musical journey has led him to crossroads, where in Hawaii, Elias met a fellow Australian guitar player, who has become a driving force in his development as a player, having done their first show together while Elias was still in school, and have since then, formed a duo known as ‘Elias & JJ’ – having released a series of EP’s together titled,
‘According To History’ and have been performing shows around NSW – a more notable show would be opening for Daryl Braithwaite at Wests, Tamworth NSW.
Elias is a proud owner of the “Sounds of Country’ and is proud to be associated with esteemed brands such as AER Amplifiers and Maton Guitars, solidifying his status as a rising star in the music industry. His dedication to his craft and unwavering passion for music continue to propel him towards greater heights
